'''''Ai no Uta'' ~ Pikmin CM Song - Single''' ({{j|愛のうた ~ ピクミンCMソング - Single|Ai no Uta ~ Pikumin CM Songu - Shinguru|Song of Love}}) is a single by a Japanese image group called [[Strawberry Flower]]. This is their debut single whose A side, ''Ai no Uta'', was featured in Japanese commercials for {{p1}}, and is used in some games. Unexpectedly, the single actually outsold the game itself.{{cite web|https://nendai-ryuukou.com/2000/song/063|Ai no Uta's total copies sold in Japan|Nendai Ryuukou}}{{cite web|https://web.archive.org/web/20080409074438/http://www.japan-gamecharts.com/gc.php|Pikmin's total copies sold in Japan|Japan Game Charts | '''''Ai no Uta'' ~ Pikmin CM Song - Single''' ({{j|愛のうた ~ ピクミンCMソング - Single|Ai no Uta ~ Pikumin CM Songu - Shinguru|Song of Love}}) is a single by a Japanese image group called [[Strawberry Flower]]. This is their debut single whose A side, ''Ai no Uta'', was featured in Japanese commercials for {{p1}}, and is used in some games. This CD single remained in the top ten for several weeks. Unexpectedly, the single actually outsold the game itself.{{cite web|https://nendai-ryuukou.com/2000/song/063|Ai no Uta's total copies sold in Japan|Nendai Ryuukou}}{{cite web|https://web.archive.org/web/20080409074438/http://www.japan-gamecharts.com/gc.php|Pikmin's total copies sold in Japan|Japan Game Charts}} About three months after ''Ai no Uta'' was released, the group continued with another single, ''Pikmin Dance'', featuring three dance versions of their 2001 song, ''Ai no Uta''. The CD comes with a disc, and a lyric book, containing exclusive artwork and lyrics for both ''Ai no Uta'' and ''[[Namida Ga Afureta]]''. | ||
The title of the A side translates to ''Song of Love'', so-named because the song expounds on the emotions the Pikmin feel in relation to their involvement in the game, and also their devotion to their given task of helping the game's protagonist, [[Captain Olimar]]. The B side is ''[[Namida Ga Afureta]]'', and the third track is an instrumental version of ''Ai no Uta''. | The title of the A side translates to ''Song of Love'', so-named because the song expounds on the emotions the Pikmin feel in relation to their involvement in the game, and also their devotion to their given task of helping the game's protagonist, [[Captain Olimar]].
